For his birthday, he wanted to have a pirate theme! So for the past couple weeks, I have been planning just that! Its been fun, but a lot of work
…it’s going to be nice to see his expression at his party (Sunday)

This spring my sister in-law came in town and we got to bake together (=
We made these beautiful cupcakes and rice crispy bird nests for Sunday church!
It was a blast getting to try some cute ideas and of course cleaning up our MASSIVE mess lol

I thought they were adorable and perfect for spring time :) enjoy!!

To make the bird nests, we used:
– rice crispy cereal mixed with marshmallows (that we shaped into bird nests)
*NOTE: I used the coconut toasted marshmallows to add extra taste and a slightly different color. They were a little more difficult that regular marshmallows, to work with)
– coconut (we dyed it green to make the grass)
– chocolate whopper eggs (for you guessed it, the eggs!)
– a glass or wax paper to place the eggs on when finished and while shaping.

SIMPLE, EASY, FUN (:

– To decorate the cupcakes we used dyed homemade buttercream icing and various objects (bird shaped fondant, whopper eggs, gummy flowers, etc…) to add little fun to the cupcakes.
